9 Year Old Snowboarder Throws Double Backflip & Many Other Tricks

This is Eli Bouchard, he's only 9 and shreds like a pro!

Posted by Extreme on Sunday, March 5, 2017

Frontside 270 to down rail. Double backflip off a 50-foot cheese wedge. Front flip to down-rail tap.

Such a trick resume resembles that of a pro rider or one in the making—but it belongs to the charismatic 9-year-old Eli Bouchard, world record holder for being the youngest to land a double backflip. Alongside pursuing his snowboard career with clutch style, he's wrapping up the third grade. And the lip of that mega Maximise wedge is more than twice his height.

Mind blown!
